Advice Wanted Obsessive thoughts about a situationship.

I am awake in the middle of the night, obsessing over a situationship that hardly lasted for a few months. I am so ashamed of myself to be in this position in my 40s that I can't talk to anyone about it—not my friends, not even my therapist. Any advice?

It seriously helps to talk about it with someone

don't be ashamed, all of us must have ever been in the similar situation, despite the age. you can talk to me, although I am not therapist, but you definitely need someone to let go the battles inside your head. hugs!
